This has to be the cutest puppy ever! Carolina is a little, tiny girl. She has Chocolate in her background so she has that light nose and nails and paw pads.

Charolina and his sister, Charlie, were owner surrenders along with their mom. Sounded great until we learned their mom had no milk left. So, Charlie and Carolina learned very quickly how to make a Gerber bottle work for them. She and her brother are on the same schedule so when they wake up hungry, they both wake up hungry and try to root the other off of the bottle nipple. They have learned to come running when they see their bottle. (Look at Carolina's picture for proof of how much they love it.)

Carolina is the smallest of the two babies. We don't think she should go to a family with small children. If you think you want Carolina to come live with you, there are some things we will be looking for. It's important that you be committed to raising a puppy. Puppies have accidents, puppies chew things, and puppies can be as troublesome as they can be delightful. Little puppies grow up and don't stay the tiny, cuddly creatures they are now. You must want her to spend her whole life with you. You must also guarantee us she will be spayed when she's old enough. Our babies cannot be used to breed.

In return for your love and patient training, Carolina will give you all the love she has and plenty of dachshund kisses.

AADR does not recommend dachshunds for families with children under 5, or families planning to have children during the dog's lifetime. Dachshunds are often not patient with little kids, and kids can accidentally hurt a dachshund's back or get bitten.

Please don't let the distance stand in your way of finding your newest best friend. We have volunteers that will help your "new friend" get up and down the East Coast and mid-west. We just can't get them from one coast to the other. For now, please look for dogs on your coast.
